I will be publishing posts about random things from opinions about video games, books, music (list will go on)
Overview
Since I cannot think of anything to talk about (busy weekend) . I will just talk about this series. The Hunger games takes place in the fictional nation of Panem (would have been located in North America) over 75 years before the story begins the thirteen districts rebelled against Capitol the ruling district. Capitol ended the rebellion (and destroyed the thirteenth) and began the hunger games, where a boy and girl from each of the twelve districts would fight to the death in an arena made for them.
The first book in this series was pretty interesting, as the characters made very gray or morally complex decisions (killing others without regret, sabotage). The main characters live in a country with an authoritarian styled government. Where this government controls everything in their lives from what is broadcasted to even outright isolating the districts. By the third and final book however I kind of lost interest in the story. In the end I recommend reading the first book as its more about survival what we are willing to do.
